Dolby Atmos mixed poorly in Indian content

[buru.khand]

Hey guys, I recently noticed that the Atmos content on Netflix India for Indian series (just watched Delhi crime) doesn't sound as immersive as it does for other series (eg. Pluribus on Apple TV). I have a pretty decent 5.1.2 system but sometimes I feel the "Atmos" content made in India is poorly mixed for that matter even some old 5.1 movie sounds better. Is it just me or someone else has also noticed this? Would love to have some feedback

Yes, DC-3 is poor on the audio front in Atmos-mode. Finer nuances are missed out, even dialouges do taper out in many scenes. Hindi PCM mode is more impactful.

I feel it depends on Movies sound mix quality .
There are some good movie content available .Take ThugLife ( Tamil movie ) for example it’s AV quality is impressive on Netflix.

In streaming Apple TV offers best sound quality followed by Netflix .

But please note that Streaming audio quality is not as good as Blu-ray/Physical media /Rips.
You may lack the dynamics and refinement to some extent comparatively.

Its worth checking if the original Audio Mix included Atmos. If it did not, you can't really expect much
